    Only 4 out of the 6 courses were decent, considering it is $105 fix price 6 course one would expect better, also pretty arrogant to mention “taxes & gratuities extra” on their menu, gratuity is always a voluntary thing, one cannot boldly demand, and why would you charge $35 per person for cancellations? Are we enforcing airlines fare system? pretty soon there may be extra charges to use cutlery……. All in all I would not recommend, there are plenty of decent restaurants in downtown dc

    As regular omnivores, not typically vegan, our group of 4 were skeptical diners. However, once we tried the first plate- a vegan cheese flight, we quickly changed our minds. With each new dish arrival, we were increasingly blown away by the flavors and could not believe everything was plant based. Perfectly portioned, the dish presentations were artistic and even synchronized by the attentive staff. We savored every bite and felt satisfied without being overfilled. We also opted for the wine pairing and the sommelier weaved imaginative travel stories to describe the tasting notes. Service was exceptional and the owner was also in the trenches with the crew who all looked happy to be there. Only opened Thursday-Saturday, menus are set and creatively unique. My husband ranked this as his best haute cuisine experience, which says a lot. This is definitely a special occasion place not to be rushed through for an unforgettable dining journey regardless of dietary preferences!

    I believe there is only one other restaurant on par with Elizabeth's and that would be the Michelin starred restaurant - the Inn at Little Washington, Vegetarian dinner menu. Elizabeth's also rate a Michelin Star for food, artistry, creativity, service, atmosphere, etc. It is absolutely divine. Not one complaint or concern. Thank you for a gastronomical evening delight.

Will definitely go back when the opportunity arises and will recommend to friends too. The food was absolutely delicious, and plenty.

    Best meal I have had, bar none. It was expensive, certainly, but also so memorable and exciting. It’s hard to find vegan restaurants that don’t compromise or at least try to play to pre existing tropes. This was novel, quality food.

    I was in town from NYC for the Cherry Blossom 10M race, and ate here as a solo diner. Everything from the food, service, and ambiance were outstanding. I ordered the tasting menu plus the kale chips and caviar appetizers (both were delicious), and the wine pairing. The food was creative, but not at all gimmicky. Beautiful presentation, complex flavors, creative, and delicious. Wines were perfectly paired and the sommelier told a fun story with each pairing. Service was very friendly, efficient, and attentive. Highly recommend and I will return the next time I’m in DC!

    As always - a superb restaurant overall and easily the best vegan restaurant we have ever eaten in. But Elizabeth’s can take a proud place among restaurants of all kinds. The Michelin people are sadly out of touch in their failure to award one or more stars to Elizabeth’s Gone Raw.

    The food was exquisite. The flavors were unexpected and really interesting. The non-alcoholic drinks were especially thoughtful and delicious. Service was perfect. I was visiting for a conference and as a single diner, I would have preferred not to be sat in the center forward table at the entrance to the main dining room, but that is my one complaint. Go hungry; I was feeling full and content by the third course.
